As Haiti's political crisis continues, lives are being lost. Not just in the political violence but as aid fails to reach the sick and the hungry. At particular risk are those who have contracted cholera.

 

On a desolate hill side just outside of Port Au prince we come across a grim scene.

Cholera Victims who during the last few days of violence were not able to get to a hospital for treatment and therefore died.

First the bodies are laid out in a mass grave.

Then a simple but moving burial ceremony-the dignity in death that they did not receive in life.
